Asset Bank API

NOTE: The API is a Professional/Enterprise Level feature. Please contact us to ensure you are licensed to use this. We are happy to provide help to your developers in their use of the API - we charge for this on a Time & Materials basis.

As of February 17th 2020 we will be introducing rate limiting which will affect all customers hosted on our cloud servers. Please read our support article on rate limiting for more information.

The previous authentication technique for older instances of Asset Bank is to restrict access by IP address (to only allow connections from certain clients).

When using IP restriction, we recommend that you only allow access the API from servers, and not as web-browsing clients, to avoid the risk of CSRF attacks.

Direct Link Cache

The 'direct link cache' enables clients (which can be browsers) to call a URL that converts and returns an image based on request parameters. This can be used to display images resized to particular requirements. See Direct Link Cache
